Example sentences

• وَأَقْلَعَ أَشْجَارًا بُسْتَانِهَا، وَتَعَطَّلَتْ المَرَاوِزُ،

  And someone uprooted the trees of her orchard, and the waterwheels stopped working.

  شجر — trees. A collective noun 'trees', the direct object of 'uprooted', hence accusative. It heads an 'of' pairing with 'her orchard' next, giving 'the trees of her orchard', and takes its definiteness from that owner.
